Sergey Grishin (Russian: Сергей Гришин; 21 June 1966 – 6 March 2023) was a Russian-American billionaire, engineer and developer, who was the president and chairman of RosEvro Group. Grishin co-owned the Rosevrobank (aka The Laundromat) and has claimed that he ‘practically brought the Russian banking system to collapse’ in the 1990s after the Soviet Union collapsed by committing ‘the largest bank fraud scheme ever’, orchestrating a $60 billion heist from the Russian Central Bank.
